“I have no idea,” Crennel said, via Adam Teicher of the Kansas City Star when asked if the national spotlight brought it out of them. “It was a surprise to me to see some of those celebrations, per se. The rules are explicit about no celebrating, particularly group celebrations. You cannot have those. Our guys, they know the rules and they should not have done it.
“I will talk to my players about that, and I don’t expect it to happen again.”
“We had some penalties that were really uncharacteristic of the guys on this team,” Crennel said. “They were celebrating and dancing and those kinds of things. With the record we have, we really can’t afford to be dancing or anything like that.
